ABOUT PROFREELANCE
Profreelance is a South African AI and workflow consulting studio. We work with founders, teams, and organisations to redesign how work gets done by improving workflows, clarifying decision-making, and applying AI practically. This is not automation hype. It is operational design.
WHY THIS PROJECT EXISTS
Modern work is fragmented. Too many tools. Repeated admin. Unclear ownership. Decisions trapped in people’s heads. Through client engagements, Profreelance builds structured systems that reduce friction and improve clarity. Alongside this work, we run Freelance Forward, a separate public education initiative that translates consulting insights into accessible resources for freelancers and independent workers in South Africa. The consultancy serves organisations. Freelance Forward serves individuals. They are distinct but connected through knowledge transfer.

Updates
Why This Project Matters
Thank you for visiting this campaign.
Profreelance was created to improve how work gets done. Through consulting engagements, I see how much friction exists inside modern organisations: scattered tools, unclear workflows, repeated admin, and underused AI.
At the same time, many freelancers and independent workers are entering the gig economy without access to structured operational knowledge.
This campaign exists to strengthen the consulting infrastructure behind Profreelance while sustaining Freelance Forward as a public education initiative.
Your support helps build systems, not just services.
What Your Support Will Build
Funds raised through this campaign will directly support:
- Development of internal AI and workflow tools
- Improved consulting delivery systems
- Structured educational materials through Freelance Forward
- Platform infrastructure and operational stability
This is about long-term infrastructure. The goal is to ensure Profreelance remains commercially viable while continuing to share practical systems knowledge publicly.
Transparency updates will be shared throughout the campaign.
A Note From the Founder
I started Profreelance because I genuinely care about how work functions in South Africa.
I believe strong systems create economic stability. I believe practical AI should improve clarity, not create confusion. And I believe the gig economy can be strengthened when operational knowledge is accessible rather than hidden behind closed consulting doors.
This campaign is part of building that foundation.
Thank you for being part of it.
